bob pendarvis: song lyrics

this song is the first part of a "mini opera" of sorts. i used to go to parties and in the back of my head i was always hoping some nice girl would just walk up and take my hand (and fall in love with me, of course). it's never really happened, but i thought it would make a sweet song.

feeling kind of lonely
with nowhere else to go
i walk into a crowded house
my expectations low

the music is too loud
and i find it hard to think
i never touch the food
but i pour myself a drink

standing still against the wall
bored as i can be
nothing here for me at all
as far as i can see

and then she takes my hand
and then she takes my hand
